1. A method of operating a data center, comprising:
receiving a first request to establish a network connection between an end point and an origin server;
forwarding the request to the origin server;
receiving a second request to establish a secure connection over the network connection;
identifying information in a header of the second request that indicates that data exchanged over the secure connection should be subject to an optimization;
forwarding the second request to the origin server;
receiving first encrypted traffic over the secure connection; and
applying the optimization to the first encrypted traffic.
